Night has descended and it's time to head for the 14th Manchester food and drink festival, running to 17th October. Quite a range of options this year, with Home Sweet Home gourmet bakers, a Harvey Nicks wine bar, Spanish and Brazilian stalls and the Oktober beerfest tent. Good to hear that 1847 bistro was there too.
I'm also pleased to see the launch of a vegetarian fine dining club, the Hungry Gecko, with tv's Masterchef semi-finalist and local lass Jackie Kearney: http://www.thehungrygecko.com/

Celebrity chef Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall is speaking here today. A former "meat-head", he is now an advocate of the health and moral arguments for global vegetarianism: http://foodanddrinkfestival.com/
Like the lurking behind the potted palm feeel of this pic! Hope you enjoyed sampling the food.
ReplyDeleteThis definitely sounds like fun!
ReplyDeleteNice! I love wines, especially reds, from Portugal and Chile, and some Brazilian wines.
